Recommend a dentist, preferably with TMJ expertise please! Hi all! I need recommendations for a good dentist, please! I was pretty spoiled in that I had the same awesome dentist for forever, until he retired a few years ago. Since then, I moved to Austin about a year and a half ago and had one disastrous dental visit at Smile360 on South Lamar (long story, but he was condescending/unfriendly and I cried in my car afterwards!)
Ideally it would be a dentist with significant experience with patients who have TMJ. I have VERY bad TMJ for which I wear a mouth guard at night. I also would prefer a single private practice rather than a large group, so I can see the same person every time. Bonus points for someone who has a great bedside manner! Also I live south centra so while I'd prefer someone close by, I'm willing to drive if they're really great.
Please help! Thanks so much in advance.
Does anyone have any good experience/recomendations for a local dentist/oral surgeon? ... Need to have an inplant done for a missing back molar that was removed during surgery last year (now that my bone is strong)
